When sixteen-year-old Rena comes home to find her home town burning and everyone and everything she ever loved gone in an instant. She meets Rodrick, an old court artificer now wandering the lands, for whom the news of an entire town burning down and the local authorities barely acknowledging it is nothing new. Along the way they team up with other companions, who each hold their own grudges, to figure out who is responsible for these fires, how deep the corruption of the Royal Council runs and why there are whispers about the old Gods again.
Season 1 now also available as a book!!
Season one has been greatly edited and turned into a book, with a new first chapter and about 10’000 words more than the audio drama season. If you like the show, consider getting yourself a copy of the book to see how the decisions the listeners took have been developed into a finer story. Any funds received from booksales also directly help the production of any further seasons!
A Searing Faith is available as ebook and paperback from most stores. Find more information and any pertinant links here.
